This subject appears in Serious Sam: Double D. 

The LM32 Rocket Launcher is a weapon that appears in Serious Sam: Double D and Serious Sam: Double D: XXL.

Overivew[]

The LM32 fires a rocket straight ahead when the fire key is pressed. When the rocket hits something, it will explode, damaging anything near the impact site. These rockets do a large amount of damage on a direct impact, but the explosion damage is lower than a direct impact.

Like the rocket launchers from other Serious Sam games, the rocket launcher can be used to rocket jump; all the player needs to do is look down, then fire and jump at the same time. This will, however, damage the player (not in the XXL version), so it is advised to not rocket jump too often unless there are plenty of health pickups nearby.

Upgrades[]

In Double D: XXL, the rocket launcher can be upgraded, which can greatly improve its potential in a stack. Upgrades are unlocked as the player progresses through the game. They can be purchased by interacting with The Trader and buying them from the menu. The last upgrade, Serious Bomb, is unlocked after beating the game.

Rockets fired will create a cloud of deadly gas on impact which does damage over time in a large area.
LM32 Rocket Launcher Lazy Daisy Lazy Daisy ($380)
Fires homing rockets with intense course correction. Can still crash into the ground, but will also bounce off armor.
LM32 Rocket Launcher Foo-foo Floater Foo-foo Floater ($500)
Creates a special gas cloud on impact which causes most enemies to float in the air, incapacitating them. It is ineffective against flying enemies.
LM32 Rocket Launcher Serious Bomb Serious Bomb ($1400)
The rocket launcher becomes a charge weapon that fires Serious Bombs. The weapon must be charged to full capacity to launch the bomb.

Appearances[]

The weapon first appears near the end of Jurassic Reckoning. Several more rocket launchers appear later in the game, with one or two being secrets.

Tactics[]

  • The rocket launcher is a very useful weapon against enemies with a large amount of health, such as the Major Bio-mechanoid or Spinosaurus. It deals a high amount of damage per rocket, and it has a fast enough fire rate that it can deliver a lot of rockets quickly.
  • Its large ammo reserve, combined with its good rate of fire, makes it useful for eliminating hordes of enemies quickly. Stacking it with weapons like the 12 Gauge Shotgun and the Thompson submachine gun will give the player more than enough firepower to wipe out a horde.
  • When stacked with strong weapons like the XL4 Lasergun, the rocket launcher is extremely deadly, and can quickly kill everything but bosses quickly. Putting multiple rocket launchers with the previously-mentioned powerful weapons can utterly devastate even bosses.
  • Using the rocket launcher when enemies are very close to the player isn't a good idea, as the explosion from each rocket will harm the player. This can easily lead to the player unintentionally committing suicide, especially if multiple rocket launchers are being fired.
  • Putting rocket launchers near the top of a stack isn't a good idea, as the rocket will hit the roof in tight spaces, inflicting self-damage to the player.
  • Multiple rocket launchers allow the player to fly farther while doing a rocket jump at the expense of more health taken away per jump. This can be useful for reaching secrets that would otherwise be difficult to reach for various reasons.
  • The Lazy Daisy upgrade is very useful for taking out fast and flying enemies like Beetles, Spiders, or groups of Chimputees. A rocket launcher with this upgrade should be placed at the top of a stack to maximize the chances of the rockets hitting the target.
  • The Foo-foo Floater upgrade can be used against groups of weak or fast enemies or their armored variants, like Gnaars or Kleer Skeletons.
  • With the Serious Bomb upgrade, the rocket launcher becomes one of the most powerful weapons in the game and can deal an extreme amount of damage to all kinds of enemies, regardless of how much health they have.
